Will.i.am Set To Graduate From Harvard Business School

Published Mon, February 26, 2024 at 3:05 PM EST

Will.i.am has announced that his upcoming graduation from Harvard Business School will be his "first time walking the stage". On a recent episode of the Jennifer Hudson Show the producer shared that he is set to graduate in 2024.

“One year I woke up, and I’m like, ‘I wanna go to Harvard,'” the "Where Is The Love" producer and rapper shared. “I’m doing all of this business stuff, and I wanna make sure that I’m not just taking advantage of success and not disciplining myself to have further success. I didn't graduate on stage from high school because I had a record deal. This will be my first time walking the stage."

Will.i.am revealed recently to Forbes that he no longer wishes to make music for business purposes. "Black Eyed Peas is a family and we will always make music as a friendship and bond," he explained.

"Solving problems with technology and putting teams together is synonymous with the work that I do philanthropically. I never in my life thought I'd be able to go to Harvard, and now I'm there. Going there to learn business after I had success in another business is a humbling experience."
